DESCRIPTION:Please note the course will be held in EPCC Edinburgh:\n \n\nA
 RCHER\, the UK's national supercomputing service\, offers training in soft
 ware development and high-performance computing to scientists and research
 ers across the UK. As part of our training service we are running a 2 day 
 Data Management: IO\, Transfer and Storage course at EPCC.\n \nWhether yo
 u're undertaking very data-intensive computations or working with large in
 put or output files that need to be transferred on or off an HPC machine\,
  a good understanding of data management best practices will help you to m
 ake the most of available resources.\n \nThis two day course will fall in
 to two parts:\n \nThe first part will cover best practices for working wi
 th your files on ARCHER. It will describe ARCHER's file systems and the re
 lationship between ARCHER and the RDF. It will introduce GridFTP as a mech
 anism for moving large amounts of data on and off ARCHER and the RDF. We'l
 l then introduce file formats that have associated libraries for high-perf
 ormance IO (such as HDF5 and NetCDF).\n \nThe second part will cover alte
 rnative data storage and transmission techniques. It will introduce both t
 raditional "SQL" databases and more modern "NoSQL" databases that are part
 icularly suited for some big data applications. Finally\, we'll cover some
  of the widely used file formats used when working with data on the Intern
 et\, such as XML and JSON.\n \n\nhttps://events.prace-ri.eu/event/347/
